On Saturday workouts will get underway in Indianapolis at the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine. So this is the final look at some mock drafts prior to the Combine. It'll be interesting to see how this week's edition compares with next week's version. Will the Combine change it up? Free agency also kicks off in a week - and that could also have a big impact on these various mock drafts.
Without further ado, let's get to the mocks...

C.J. Spiller - 5% (-)
As you can see above, compared to last week McClain is trending down. Perhaps a lot of people believe one of two things - either they feel like Miami will sign Karlos Dansby and then not have as much of a need for McClain or they believe that Miami's need at OLB exceeds their need at ILB.
The C.J. Spiller bandwagon also took a little bit of a nose dive this week. But that could all change if/when Spiller runs a blazing 40 time this weekend. The Brandon Graham thing I still don't get, however. I just don't see this kid as top 15 material. I think you can get comparable talent (Jerry Hughes, for example) in round two.
As always, your thoughts below...
